    Just took delivery May 17....my second ADV. I had an 06 and regretted selling it. Very happy with this bike.:D I had matte black "moto lights" installed -caliper mounts. They are 35 watts each and very bright. I got every option on it except the alarm and traction control.

    Picked up new lids...Schuberth C3's while at Altanta BMW. A very well made helmet, very light and comfortable.
    German bike, German lid.

    Lots.
    Those things are wheelie machines! Here's my fathers F650GS that I ride more than he does. They are great off-road. Just have to remember... it's not a dirt bike.

    Long way round.......yes, I have the CD. Charlie Boorman and Ewen McGregor. Fun CD to watch, but don't think I will ever have the time or the $$$ to do the kind of ride they did. BMW sure cashed in after KTM dropped them!:D

    This is my second BMW ADV. I had an 06 model and regretted selling it. I have been riding for 35 years now and this is one of the best bikes I have ever owned.
